Great for a wedding; glad I read the reviews!
The Pros: I felt pretty and feminine in this dress - especially on a warm day, the cutouts allowed for the dress to breathe and be comfortable in. The dress hugged my curves in the right places and I received many compliments. The Cons: The dress has a VERY low cut front. I like cleavage, but this was too low and loose. The only option to make the dress work was a black bandeau top. If this was a dress I owned, I would have had the straps taken up/in and could have gone without a bra, but no amount of pinning would have made it work on its own. The zipper was tricky to get started and difficult to zip up without assistance.

Feminine and fun! Perfect for outdoor wedding!
Loved this dress! Felt pretty and comfortable in it. Perfect for an outdoor wedding in wine country. Received so many compliments! It was a departure from the typical style I wear and glad I took a chance! The top fit secure enough I could have gone without a bra but strapless worked great. Definitely a long dress in the back I'm 5'9 and wore 2.5" heels and it still hit the ground. Would rent again.

It was comfortable and sexy without being too revealing.
Like others, I rented both the M & L and found that the M slip and the L lace sheath worked best together. It's great that the two pieces aren't attached making the mix & match easier. I love being able to wear a normal bra. The dress was sexy and comfortable. I will definitely rent again - many compliments!

Felt very feminine - perfect for a pre-wedding luncheon.
As per the other reviews, the dress runs large up top. While great you can wear a regular bar, safety pins were needed on the straps and the cross over on the cleavage to give the dress more of a fitted look. Easily fixable but I wouldn't order a size up. Otherwise very pretty dress and lots of compliments.

Felt FABULOUS in this dress! Was sad when the party was over and I had to take it off.
There's stretch and give with the dress, though you'll want Spanx to smooth things out. Love that you can wear a normal bra. The 8 fit fine...but the 10 allowed for breathing and dancing room. A small piece of double stick tape kept on the cleavage to keep my Spanx's from showing. Paired with the suggested Nicole Miller Teardrop Pearl Earrings and they looked gorgeous together.
